Floyd Mayweather arguably had the worst bout of his fighting career against a 6’2” tall Logan Paul, which lasted till the final bell and ended in a draw. Luckily, it was an exhibition and didn’t affect Mayweather’s unscratched 50-0 record. However, it put a dent in his inevitable image, and former heavyweight champion, Mike Tyson, felt ‘Money’ got hurt.

Speaking about the differences in the weight, Tyson commented on how Paul’s deadly punches were camouflaged as jabs. Although they didn’t seem devastating, Tyson claimed to have seen Mayweather get hurt.

“Floyd stopped, but listen those little punches that he [Logan Paul] and Floyd [shared], I know they hurt. They don’t look like they hurt, but they hurt. Because he [Paul] is 50 pounds heavier,” said Mike Tyson.
